Real World Hollywood
From LoveToKnow Reality-TV
It's hard to believe that this reality show has been on for as long as it has, but Real World Hollywood was in fact the show's 20th season.
"A True Story…"
Everyone that's ever followed the show has probably heard the introduction so many times they can recite it from memory. The premise remains the same: seven people are chosen to live in a big, beautiful home and live their lives while MTV camera crews follow them around. The only difference for this season is that instead of all the roomies working at the same job, they are left to their own devices to pursue their Hollywood dreams.

Kimberly Alexander

Sarah holds a degree in Broadcast Journalism. At the time of taping she was in a serious relationship. As these things always go, the distance between the two hindered their relationship. At the reunion show, she announced that she and her boyfriend were engaged.

Brianna worked as an exotic dancer before being chosen as a Real World housemate. She left the show to take care of some legal issues back home, but returned later. Brianna revealed on the show that she used to do cocaine and crystal meth.
Brittini Sherrod
- Age 22
- From Tempe, Arizona
- Model
Brittini joined the cast in episode 10 and had a boyfriend at the time. There wasn't a whole lot of time left in the season for Brittini to start too much drama except for some heavy flirtation with Will.
The Wrap Up
Every cast member except for Greg got back together in July of 2008 for a reunion show. At the time, no one said why Greg wasn't there, but apparently he was still bitter about being fired. The wrap up show was basically a rehash of the season except for ex-girlfriend Janelle taking center stage to let loose on how she felt about Will and his various sexual activities while on the show.
No matter what, this show provides drama, drama and more drama. You can bet the coming seasons will offer more of the same. Next stop: Real World Brooklyn.
